<A NAME="TI757"></A><p>To define a connection through the Adaptive Server interface,
you must create a database profile by supplying values for at least
the basic connection parameters in the Database Profile Setup -
Adaptive Server Enterprise dialog box. You can then select this
profile anytime to connect to your database in the development environment.</p>

user object deployed in EAServer</span> <A NAME="TI759"></A>You cannot use the SYJ interface to connect to the database
in the PowerBuilder development environment. However, the SYJ Database
Profile Setup dialog box provides a convenient way to set the appropriate
connection parameters and then copy the syntax from the Preview
tab into the script for your Transaction object.</p>
